Elizabeth 
Hebrew, "God's oath"
You have to give Elizabeth points for consistency: It has remained in the top 20 American names for more than a century. With two of the most iconic women of all time -- the original Virgin Queen, and Britain's current monarch -- Elizabeth carries an eternally regal air. Long live the queen.
